[Noisebridge-discuss] MoinMoin developers visiting

[Thomas Waldmann]

(I sent the stuff below to this list about 2w ago, but got zero
responses. I used bcc because I didn't want replies to go to other lists
I bcced also. I am not sure if it didn't get through or if there was
just noone interested. So, if the latter is the case, excuse my repost.
BTW, we'll have a talk/presentation at Baypiggies meeting, 2012-10-25.)

Hi Python hackers, Wiki lovers, Web developers, geeks, designers,

I just wanted to ask if there is some interest in MoinMoin Wiki within
your group?

MoinMoin is a wiki engine written in Python and we are currently working
on the next major release of it (moin2), which will be quite different
and much more powerful than the 1.x stuff you maybe already know.

We use quite some external libraries / frameworks now (like flask,
werkzeug, jinja2, ...), see the link below.

It's not production ready yet, but ready for hacking and UI style
improvements.

Some details about it and some more links can be found there:

Two MoinMoin core developers (Bastian Blank and me) will be in
California from Oct. 12 to 26 for Google Summer of Code Mentor Summit,
travelling around by car, having some [sf]un and meeting other geeks. :)

Our route will be something like:
Oct 12 arrival at San Francisco Airport
... (not decided yet)
Oct 19 evening .. Oct 21 evening MENTOR SUMMIT (Mountain View)
... (not decided yet)
Oct 25 moin2 talk/presentation at Baypiggies meeting
Oct 26 departure from San Francisco Airport

I posted this to:
* baypiggies ML
* socal-piggies ML
* noisebridge-discuss ML

So, if this sounds interesting, please reply (and maybe also tell what's
your field of interest / whether you are already familiar with
moin/moin2 - we can talk about everything, but if we have some specific
topics and know how deep it can get, it might get more interesting).

If there is enough interest, maybe we can arrange something.

BTW, we are on IRC quite often, you can meet us on #moin or #moin-dev on
chat.freenode.net (have some patience, we are not always staring at the
channel :).

Cheers,

Thomas & Bastian
